It happens as the consequences of role and status differentiation between men and women, inherited from the history, culture and norm existing in the society.

In writing this thesis, the writer did a library study. The writer tried to obtain and collect data including books, articles, and internet sites as many as possible. As the basis to analyze the problem formulation, the writer used gender studies.
